It came today. The color is nothing like Rose. It's more like '05 BG but darker and with some lilac in it. One thing that is impressive is the leather. It's really superb, at least on this one. The tassels are thicker and smooshier than the ones on my '05 BG. It's also not flat, it has dimension and it's not at all veiny. I think it will break in beautifully.
It was late evening so I don't have any good daylight pics. I will take some tomorrow. Some of these were very late evening with a little sun. The rest are inside with flash or under halogen lights with no flash.
Outside natural light:
Outside less light, see how the lilac tones show up more:
